Serious Problem2007-11-25 12:25:18

My cat is about two years old and she has something called seizures once in a while. It may sound funny but it's not.

Do any of you people have a cat like that too?

The vet ran a blood test and there wasn't any liver or kidney problem. He said she's just going to live like that. Someone please conversate with me? Everytime my cat goes through a seizures she always leave behind pee, I don't want her like that for the rest of her life, concidering she only has 6 left from 3 seizures incidents. No she doesn't bleed or foam afterward, she just. goes back to what she does. Watching her have seizures is almost watching her die in pain.

For once my cat decided to sleep with me so she crawled onto my blanket for three hours as I slept on the couch. And I remember I was dreaming but I still felt something shaking, and I woke up franticly. It's not cool seeing her like that. It's so called normal to many dogs but may also occur but may also occur in cats.

Thanks.

Answers:

I would defintely get a second opinion. A blood test is not enough. I had a beloved kitty who had seizures, copious tests were run, some very truamatic to both me & my kitty. I just would not give up. A new vet diagnosed congestive heart failure & nothing could be done. A doctor once told ME about an unusual symtom: "I guess you're just going to have to live with it." I demanded further testing, as you should with your kitty, discovered the cause which could be serious & needs monitoring, so please don't settle for this! The "pee" doesn't necessarily have anything to do with her liver or kidneys. In seizure, control of bodily functions is tenuous at best. I know how you feel; it's quite frightening. Don't give up!

Your cat is epileptic. She has Epilepsy and needs to be medicated.
